It seems to have A LOT of notes in common with Cassini! Is it just like Cassini, does anyone know?
Black is back!
Will be reissued with Hot and Nude.
Perfect, I'm very curious about it.
I still have an almost full original bottle of this from like when it first came out!! And guess what it still smells the same. I guess I should wear it up but it reminds me of my "wild days" and I just love sniffing it lol. I got it for my birthday from my sister maybe thats why I don't use it up? Great unique scent with powerful silliage and lasting strength.
I will never forget being in a restaurant and a guy, standing behind me and whispering, whatever you're wearing smells mesmerizing on you...It was Basic Black, by Bill Blass. Please bring it back!!!!
When do you think you will bring Basic Black back? Why was it ever discontinued? It was a big mistake to discontinue it!! It is my is absolute favorite and my "signature" scent!!!!! I want to be able to buy it always and forever!! Please bring it back soon!! There is a market for it!! Thanks, please consider this request!!!
Please bring Basic Black perfume back.
I LOVED it!!! Bring it back! Bring it back!!!
Anybody swapping her or his large bottle?? Please contact me in that case!!
Please bring back Basic Black! It was the best/sexiest perfume ever!
I was VERY dissapointed when the discontinued Basic Black!! I LOVED it. Men at my job (friends) would follow me just to smell the fragrance. Can't you bring it back??
Its a shame this is discontinued - its one of the sexiest fragrances I own. Very complex, with heady floral notes as well as woody and spicy notes, its a very dark scent as the name "basic black" implies. I'd consider it a very mature scent, and not for teens at all.
